May 19, 1883 “Buffalo Bill” Cody’s first Wild West Show (1883)

William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody opened Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show in Omaha, Nebraska

launching a genre of outdoor entertainment that thrived for three decades and survived, in fits and starts, for almost three more “Westward the course of empire takes its way.” Annie Oakley broke ground when she and her husband and manager, Frank Butler, joined Buffalo Bill early in 1885

Lillian Smith toured as a teenager with Buffalo Bill, disappeared for a while from public view, then resurfaced in Mexican Joe’s and other Wild Wests as “Princess Wenona, the Indian Girl Shot” #BuffaloBillCody

Firearm Owners Protection Act
May 19, 1986

United States federal law that revised the Gun Control Act of 1968 - Banned the sale & manufacture of Full Auto (NFA) weapons after the date of enactment May 19, 1986 - Ended record keeping on ammunition sales - “Safe passage” provision allows travel with firearms through states w/ strict gun control laws - Forbid the U.S. Government or any agency of it, from keeping any records linking non-NFA firearms to their owners - Records of NICS Check are legally required to be destroyed after 24 hours

It was NOT all bad, but the #HughesAmendment certainly was

Never forget
Fight for change

29 years ago, tomorrow, was the date the Hughes Amendment to the 1986 Gun Owners Protection Act became effective.
The amendment effectively prohibited new manufacture of machine guns by private citizen in the United States

This can be reversed, if we demand it

United States v Miller
May 15, 1939

The United States Supreme Court decided today, in 1939, that the 1934 National Firearms Act does not violate the 2nd Amendment

Since then, this decision has been used to validate most federal level gun control legislation

Do your own research on the Miller decision.
Learn, then act. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it

Most people have never heard of the MOVE bombing 35 years ago today

May 13th 1985 the Philadelphia police went to serve a warrant and ended up firing 10,000 rounds into a home in West Philly and the State police dropped a bomb onto that home

That firebomb burned down 61 homes leaving over 200 people homeless and killed 11 people including 5 children

The MOVE bombing doesn't get the attention of Ruby Ridge or the Branch Davidians in Waco while Philadelphia remains the only US city to bomb itself

Never assume what the government and law enforcement won't do and the media will let fade away

The month of May is Mental Health Awareness Month

The month of May is Mental Health Awareness Month

The @greenberetfoundation through its Extended Support program provides support, educates the public, and advocates for policies and therapies that support Green Berets and their families with mental health conditions

Approximately half of our Green Berets experience polytrauma injuries, which presents more complicated and lengthy healing processes

The long-term health of a Green Beret’s mind, body, spirit, and family are of the utmost importance to the Foundation

We supplement the care that the Veterans Administration (VA) and TRICARE provide to ensure total wellness for the Green Beret and his family

Stand with us as we continue to raise awareness, fight the stigma, and provide support and advocacy for Green Berets and their families
